Bright Gerbera Daisies for April Bouquets

Daisies have a reputation of being a simple . The humble bloom that was used in a childhood game of "he loves me, he loves me not" is actually a complex that is part of an extensive family, grows on 6 continents, and can even be placed on your dinner menu. This month we celebrate the diverse daisy, the April birth and quintessential of springtime. All in the Family: There are over 23,000 varieties of daisy, and although you may expect it to be related to the sun, you may be surprised to hear that the daisy is also related to the artichoke and many kinds of lettuce.

What is National Puppy Day?

National Puppy Day is a grassroots movement that seeks to educate pet owners on several fronts. The organizers want to bring attention to the overpopulation problem in the United States as well as to the need to spay or neuter your pet - but the main purpose for the day is to encourage adoption from shelters. 3.9 million dogs enter shelters each year, and unfortunately 1.4 million are subsequently euthanized. Only 35% of dogs who are in shelters will find a forever home. And although puppies born in shelters certainly have a much higher rate of adoption, founder Colleen Paige wanted to encourage prospective pet parents to visit shelters when ready for a new family member.

Your small actions often have a big impact - and this is the motivation behind the internationally recognized day.
